friend sent me this YouTube link. Here's the description:

Euro Basketball champs 2007 game between Greece and Serbia. Serbia lost in extra time and Milicic completely freaked out because of referees.

Be warned - the language is a tad strong.

That's actually scary stuff in light of the ethnic cleansing and the systematic raping of fleeing Kosovan women at border posts by Serbian troops during the Kosovo crisis. :eek:

Darko Milicic got a rap over the knuckles for his outburst. Disgraceful leniency. In Australia his position would have been untenable IMO. He'd have been booted off our national team.

MADRID, Spain (AP) — Memphis Grizzlies centre Darko Milicic was fined nearly US$14,000 by FIBA on Friday for a profanity-laced tirade at referees following Serbia's defeat at the European basketball championship.

Milicic, who signed a three-year deal with the Grizzlies in the off-season, made the comments - directed at match officials Fabio Facchini, Virginijus Dovidavicius and Stelian Banica - following Serbia's 68-67 loss to Greece on Tuesday.

Basketball's world governing body fined Milicic $13,770.

Serbia finished last in Group A, winless in three games for its worst finish in the tournament since its maiden appearance as Yugoslavia in 1947.

Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace and coach Marc Iavaroni called Milicic on Thursday to communicate their displeasure about the comments, The Commercial Appeal of Memphis reported Friday.

"We're very displeased with Darko's actions and comments," Wallace said. "It's an emotional situation playing in national competition, particularly with Serbia, because they take pride in having good teams. But Darko has to be in control of his emotions."

Milicic, who was selected No. 2 overall in the 2003 NBA draft by the Detroit Pistons, averaged eight points and five rebounds last season for Orlando.
